Ye only True Fish Story.
Burt Arnold in Chicago Herald.


 o, in August the young man hieth away from the city and hurieth him. self in the country.
 He reveleth in tarm- house luxurieS and recupeateth his system on fried salt pork and greens.
 He beatheth the air of the pastures and meadows, rTxlolent with the slime of the still.waicr pond,
 He goeth forth at daylight and cut teth a hickory pole and runncth line thereon that he may fish,
 He sitteth on hot rock and paSseth many hours thercon.
 And it cometh to pass that he cook eth his nose in the sun and getteth not q bite. Aye--not even single bite.
 The noontime comcth and he sleep eth.
 Then doth the diligent hen dcscry the bait but not the hook therein.
 And she swalloweth the worm, the hook and the line until she rcacheth the pole.
 To! the yoapg man awaketh, cut the string and starteth for home,
 And ss he passeth through the vil- lage he squandercth a quarter for a box of slrdines.
 Them he openeth and displayeth to the farmer as a new species of fish hc tindeth In tho pond wherein naught but bull paddles liveth.
 Night cometh and he rctirrth.
 He dreameth the sun hath sct In his nose and the bait crawlcth In his head.
 In tho morning he awakcth and breaketh his fast with an egg,
 He divideth 1t in halves at the cen. ter and behold he tlndcth the lilr. the hook and the bait'
 And To the bait liveth and crawl eth away from the hook.
 And, yea, verify, by the hump ot the sacred mule, this do bc n true story out the Koran, with the context theretrom.

Well, had to leave my horse in a livery barn near there till the next day, and walk home about three miles, and the own- CT of the fence and hen house sued me for damages. tell you, gentlemen" said the old kicker, turning around towards the passengers,-"What, con- ductor! where are the gentlemen was conversing with?"

 "They did, eh?" said the old kicker. "Well, suppose you heard what l have been saying"
 The driver said he didn't hear q word, as it was against the rules to lisen to the conversation of passengers. Then the old kicker thought minute in silence, and got off the car talking to himself.

No, a Consumptivc.
New York Graphic.


 Apropos to the surly individual who recently refused to lower the window beside him at Delmonlca'~ when requested by young Allan Ar thur and Paul Dana, the Casual has a story to relate with Il more satlsiacta " fiMlc:. \ thin, delicate booking woman sat in Broadway horse car one evening last week, and next hr sat m evident native oi the queens realm. The window behind the Brit isher was open and the cool wind blew in on the woman, making her shiver and draw her cloak more close ly about her shoulders. At last she leaned over and said in thin voiec. but ladylike way, "Won't you be kind enough to close the window behind you as 1t makes me very coldp" II would hardly have caused the mnn any inconvenience to grant this most reasonable request, but somehow his native culture came to the surface, ai"l he replied harshly: Il prefer it open. You Americans can't stand an, thing you all Sem 10 have the consump- iiVti. bt oiiNi lfhSrNhkNAT i' ''' ear were astoundcd at this incivility and positive cruelty, and there were many angry glances east nt the royal subject. Finally a gentlenan rose from the opposite side of the car, ninl approaching inc Englishman with about 220 pounds avoirdupois leaned over him and grasping the window slammed it down with nearly enough force to break tlie glass then, straight ening himself up, he remarked in n very positive tone: Now my friend, if you think all Americans are afil icted with consumption, you just raise that window again. an an American. The little woman blushed, the other passengers smiled, the 220-pouDd American returned 10 his seat, and the discomfited Briton looked out of the window and thought and thought.

WALL OF A SUMMER soARpER.

At morn hear the fowls res sponsive, While the milkman sings; The mules sad vail, the pigs shrill squeal And other dulcet things; And when these truly rural beauties Strike mine ear, my nose, my eye, 'Tls then for thee, fair Baby ylon- Iris then for thee I sigh At noon, when OCT my smoking platter sit and sigh awhile, And try the bread, which tastes like batter, Spread with yellow tile" And when the onions tender breathings Float in on the sultry air, l wipe my stream -ng eyes and sigh For Babylon the fair. But when at night the tramps are prowling And the night hawks cry, When sadly comes the farm dogs how ling, And the June bugs fly, 'Tis then I'd rise and shake the country And the hay seed from my hair; 'Tis then to thee, fair Baby lon, Thy daughter would repair.

THE DECAY OF SENTIMENT.
Atlantic.


 At present, however, the new dis ciples of .'earnestneSS" are trying hard to persuade us that wc are too humorous, and that it is the spirit of universal mockery which stiles all our nobler and finer emotions. We would like to believe them, but un- happily 1t is only to exceedingly strenuous souls that this lawless fun seems to manifest itself. The rest of us, searching cheerfully enough, fail to discover its traces. If we are Sel- dom capable of any sustained en- thusiasm, it is rather because we yawn than because we laugh. Unlike Emerson, we are glad to bc amused, only the task of amusing us grows harder day by day; and Justin Me- Carthy's languid heroine, who de- ciines to get up in the morning, be- cause she had 80 often been up before, is but an exhaustive instance of the inconvenience of modern atiety. When we read of the Oxford students beleaguering the book shops in ex- cited crowds for the first copies of ''Rokeby" and "Childe Harold" fight ing over the precious volumes, and betting recklessly on their rival sales, we wonder whether either Lord Ten nyson's or Mir. Browning's latest ef- fusions created any such tumult among the undergraduates of to-day, or wiled away their money from more legitimate subjects of specula- tion. Lord Holland, when asked by Murray for his opinion of "Old Mor- tality," answered indignantly, "Opin- ion! We did not one of Us 20 to bed last night. Nothing slept but my gout." Yet "Rokeby" and "Childc Harold" arc both in disgrace with modern critics, and "Old Mortality" stands gathering dust upon our book shelves. Mir. liowells, who ought to know, tells me that fiction has be- come finer art ia our day than it was in the days of our fathers, and that the methods and interests we have outgrown can never hope to bc revived. So if the masterpieces of the present, the triumphs of learned verse and realistic prose, fail to Tiff their readers out of themselves, like the masterpieces of the past, the fault must be our own. We devote some conscientious hours To Farley ings with Certain People of Importance" and we are all well pleased, on the whole, to find ourselves in such good company but it is a pleasure rich in the temperance that Hdmte' loved, and altogether unlikely to ruffie our composure. We read 1.-The Boston, ians' and .Thc Rise of Silas Lapham" with due appreciation of their minute perfections but we go to bed quite cheerfully at our usual hour, and are content to wait an interval of leisure to resume them. Could Ddisy Miller charm gouty leg, or Lemuei Bunker keep us awake till morning. When St. Pierre finished the manu- script of Paul and Virginia" he con scnted to read it to the painter, Joseph Nernct. Al first the solitary listener was loud in his appreciation, then more subducd. then silent alto gether. Soon he ceased to praise : he only wcpt." Yet Paul and Nir- ginia" has been pronounced morbid, strained. unreal. unworthy even of the tears that childhood drops upon it's pages.
